Terraced houses for rent in Eindhoven
Mid-terrace houses in Eindhoven are in high demand and scarce. On this page you will find the current supply, neighbourhood info and practical tips for tenants.
Mid-terrace houses in Eindhoven: what you'll find on the market
Eindhoven is not a city that stands still. The presence of large technology companies, the design sector and the university ensures a constant influx of people looking for a home. You notice this directly in the supply of mid-terrace houses: it goes fast, and the supply in the mid-range segment is limited compared to demand.
A mid-terrace house in Eindhoven attracts a wide audience: couples, young families and employees who come here for a few years. This makes competition for a vacant property high. Those who respond quickly have an advantage. View all rental properties in Eindhoven for the current supply.
The price level for mid-terrace houses falls in the upper mid-range segment. This has to do with the popularity of the city, the location of the neighbourhood and the condition of the property. Specific rental prices are listed in the overview at the top of this page, which are updated more regularly than text like this.
What you want to know before you respond
Renting a mid-terrace house in Eindhoven requires preparation. These are the points that matter in practice:
- Respond within a few hours. Popular properties in sought-after neighbourhoods are sometimes already taken before you have scheduled a viewing. Set up notifications so you don't miss anything.
- Use the free Buurtje.nl app. You will receive push notifications as soon as new mid-terrace houses become available. Free to download via the App Store and Google Play.
- Check the service costs. For mid-terrace houses in the private sector, heating costs, homeowners' association contributions or garden maintenance are sometimes charged separately. Always ask for the all-in price.
- Pay attention to the rental agreement. Temporary contracts (maximum two years for self-contained properties) are common in the private sector. After expiry, you have no automatic right to extension. Read the notice periods carefully.
- Banks are strict with properties under 40 m², but that is rarely a problem with mid-terrace houses. Still good to know if you want to buy later: also for buying mid-terrace houses in Eindhoven specific financing rules apply.
- Ask about the energy performance. An old label means higher monthly costs. For a mid-terrace house with shared walls, insulation is highly dependent on the neighbours and the year of construction.
- Register with multiple landlords at the same time. Private landlords, housing associations and estate agents work with different systems. Don't limit yourself to one channel.
What determines the rental price of a mid-terrace house
Mid-terrace houses in Eindhoven are in the upper mid-range segment of the rental market. The price you pay depends on a number of concrete factors:
- The neighbourhood. A central location or a neighbourhood with a high resident rating commands a higher rent.
- The year of construction and the state of maintenance. Renovated properties from the 1970s are in a different segment than new builds.
- Garden and parking space. A back garden or driveway noticeably increases the rental price.
- Furnished or unfurnished. Fully furnished properties are more expensive, but suitable if you are temporarily in Eindhoven for work.

Neighbourhoods worth considering
Not every neighbourhood in Eindhoven has as many mid-terrace houses for rent. These are neighbourhoods with a good resident rating and a realistic supply:
- Centrum (9.1/10): close to everything, but few ground-floor rental properties. When something becomes available, it goes fast.
- Halve Maan (9.0/10): quiet residential area near the centre, popular with families and workers.
- Meerhoven (8.5/10): new-build neighbourhood on the west side, spacious layout with lots of greenery. Good option if you drive a car.
- Oud-Stratum (8.3/10): older neighbourhood with character, close to the centre, mixed supply of rental and owner-occupied properties.
- Dommelbeemd (8.1/10): family neighbourhood along the Dommel, quiet and green, slightly further from the hustle and bustle.

Nothing found? Also look at the region
Eindhoven has a tight rental market. If you want a bit more search space, the region is worth exploring. Mid-terrace houses in Breda are a serious option if you are willing to commute a bit further. The city has a similar level of amenities and sometimes more available supply in the mid-range segment. Renting a mid-terrace house in a neighbouring municipality can also work as a temporary solution while you wait for a property in Eindhoven itself.
Frequently asked questions
What does it cost to rent a terraced house in Eindhoven?
Terraced houses in Eindhoven fall into the upper mid-range of the private rental sector. The exact rent depends on the neighbourhood, year of construction, condition of the property, and whether it includes a garden or parking space. Current rental prices are listed in the overview at the top of this page.
How can I quickly find a terraced house in Eindhoven?
Quick response is crucial in Eindhoven. Download the free Buurtje.nl app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android). The app sends you a push notification as soon as a new terraced house becomes available, so you can be the first to respond. The app is completely free.
What legal aspects should I consider with a temporary rental contract?
In the private sector, temporary contracts of up to two years are allowed for self-contained homes. After the term ends, you have no automatic right to renewal: the landlord can reclaim the property. Also pay attention to the notice period (often one to three months), the amount of the deposit (legally a maximum of three months' rent), and what exactly is included in the service costs.
Which neighbourhoods in Eindhoven are good for a terraced house?
Neighbourhoods with a high resident rating and realistic rental housing supply include Halve Maan (9.0/10), Meerhoven (8.5/10), Oud-Stratum (8.3/10), and Dommelbeemd (8.1/10). The Centre scores high (9.1/10) but has few ground-floor rental homes. Neighbourhood data and reviews per district can be found on the Eindhoven municipal page.
Is Eindhoven suitable for expats or temporary workers?
Yes, Eindhoven attracts many international workers through ASML, NXP, and the design sector. There is a supply of furnished terraced houses for temporary stays, but that segment is small and expensive. Temporary contracts are common. Expect a strict income check: landlords often require a gross monthly income of three to four times the rent, even for expats with a temporary employment contract.
Nice quiet neighbourhood, all amenities nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet, no nuisance, sometimes difficult neighbours, otherwise everyone is very much to themselves but still always curious about what others are doing. In terms of nature, it is very extensive and there are many opportunities.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a beautiful, quiet, clean and spacious neighbourhood. I experience the area as safe and child-friendly. In terms of noise, it's pleasantly quiet: you hardly hear any planes, at most occasionally a military helicopter during the day. There are good schools and the neighbourhood is very international, with a nice mix of locals and knowledge migrants. This is also due to its favourable location relative to the High Tech Campus, the ASML campus and ISE. Accessibility is good, with several bus lines (401, 402, 403 and 20) and fast arterial roads towards the centre and Best. In the centre of Meerhoven there are three supermarkets (Lidl, Albert Heijn and Jumbo), a GP, dentists and childcare. By bike you can reach Strijp-S in about 10 minutes and the centre of Eindhoven in 15 to 20 minutes. In addition, there is a lot of greenery, with beautiful walking routes along the golf course and through Park Meerland. A downside is that it's not very lively: there are few activities and hardly any catering facilities. All in all, I think it's one of the better neighbourhoods in Eindhoven. The centre is easily accessible by bike and it's a good choice if you want to live quietly, without being too far from the city. If you're looking for a cosy, lively neighbourhood with lots of nightlife, Meerhoven is probably less suitable.
Auto-translated to English by AIA quiet neighbourhood, with nice people. Small playground, large grass field, lots of trees and bushes, many shops and schools nearby. Live close to a beautiful park with a big playground. Near GP and hospital. Neighbourhood is safe and clean. We really enjoy living here.

Auto-translated to English by AIUnfortunately, the neighbourhood is deteriorating. A lot of rubbish is dumped and the police often have to come. Education: there are schools nearby and it's green enough. Shops are conveniently close and the houses have just been completely renovated.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople are becoming increasingly distant. More and more (sometimes) unjustified urgent cases. Not good. The neighbourhood is being taken over by too many nationalities, who don't seek contact. Parking problems due to charging stations.
